Well this genius mixed up their theme weeks and while I had planned to do apples last week and this coming week, I actually did colors instead. So we're flip flopping those 2. My bad.
Last year I created 3 different apple activities: Apple Dramatic Play, Apple Counting Cards for Number Recognition, and Apple Counting Cards for 1 to 1 correspondence.
Purchasing these items individually in my store would cost you $6.50
Well this year, I have created a 60 page Apples Unit that includes all 3 of those activities, and 7 MORE! You can purchase the Unit for $9.00. That's only $2.50 more for 7 additional activities!
Included Activities:
Apple Dramatic Play: Print as
many items as you need to set up your apple bakery in dramatic play. Add
plastic apples, pie tins, baskets, rolling pins, and empty spice containers.
There are also vocabulary cards to display in your house area, or use to
introduce the theme. (pg. 3-10)
Number Recognition: Print these number cards and
laminate. Students count the apples and find the correct number to velcro to the
card. Use the recording sheet to set this up as a math center. (pg. 11-21)
Apple Counting: I recommend the Martha Stewart
apple punch for counting manipulatives for this activity, but you could use
erasers, mini apples, red pom-poms, etc. Students have to count out the number
of apples needed for each basket. Numbers 1-12 (pg. 22- 33)
Apple Memory: print 2 sets of these cards to play
an apple memory and/or matching game. (pg. 34 36)
Apple Sequence: Sequence the apple cards of the seeds,
the tree, the single apple, the apple slices, and the apple pie. Also included
is a cut and paste worksheet for the same activity. The worksheet could be
printed on card stock and laminated and simply used as an activity board for
younger students (pg. 37- 39)
Apple Alphabet Game: Cut out apples to place in a pocket
chart or on the floor. Hide the worm behind an apple. Students identify a
letter and check to see if the worm is hiding behind it. Play until the worm is
found! Great time filler activity & way to practice letter identification!
(pg. 40- 42)
Apple Action Cards: Print and laminate these apples (14)
for the students to “pick” an apple. I display mine on a tree made with
bulletin board paper or draw one on a whiteboard. Read the action out loud and
do it as a group. Keep picking until each student has a turn. (pg. 43- 49)
Apple Puzzles: Cut out the puzzle pieces and
students put them together by placing strips in number order. (pg. 50- 52)
Apple Taste Testing: taste test red, green, and yellow
apples in the classroom. Give students the color apple that corresponds to
their favorite one. Display on your chalk board, easel, chart paper, etc. Use
the graphing worksheet to complete as a whole group. (pg. 53- 54)
Magnet Activities: Print these pages, laminate, and put
them on a cheap cookie sheet. Students use circular magnets to place on the
white circles. (pg. 55- 59)
